A “Power Tailgate System Problem” message appeared today while driving. Had not operated the liftgate. Since then the power liftgate will start to open but stop after opening about a foot and beeping 3 times. Can operate manually with some difficulty.

Any thoughts as to root cause would be appreciated. There must be a background test performed since I got the warning without using the liftgate. Thanks.

That sounds like the lift struts are shot. You can pick up a set on Amazon or Ebay.

Thanks for the quick reply. The only thing that has me puzzled is how/why I got the system warning before trying to use the liftgate.

Hard to say. It may have been stored from a previous attempt or it may not have locked all the way.
